Turn the knob on the side to where it slows the bolt down the most. Break it in with 10+ cases. Then over a chrono lower your dwell until you FOS begins to fluctuate then bump it back up by .5-1 ms depending on how bad it is. .5 if you are only +/- 8 or so when I begins to fluctuate 1 if you are +/- 9 or more. Geo is a simple marker.

26.2 is stock. I would leave the SFR open for a few cases. I switched over from the DMs to the GEOs and it's a whole lot less o-rings to have around. I do miss the dye color o-rings though.

not a whole lot to tinker with. once u have it decently broken in, u can dwell tune it for a bit more efficient and softer/quieter shot. thats about it.

Planet did try whole color oring thing, it didn't last long from what I remember




The manual has a actual oring sizes so you can easily match them up with spares
